I too suffer from Resistant Depression and had been through a slew of AD's and Mood Stabilisers with little effect. After trying Surmontil with Nardil and Tegretol sent my moods up and down, my Psychiatrist prescribed Lithium to augment Amitriptyline (100 mg) and Propranolol (80 mg). I was also given Lorazepam to smooth the transition.
This was 2 months ago and I can honestly say I have never felt so good. It seems as though the depression which has followed me most of my life has evaporated and I now view life differently. Please don't think I am gloating but there is hope.
